Zane Rerek This record absolutely RIPS. And it's so dynamic. It'll pummel you in the face and also just wrap you up in melody. Fucking awesome. Favorite track: Anyol.

vacant planet 50 minutes of IMMIGRINDCORE insanity structured as a concept album broken up into 4 distinct parts (A - "melodic" grindcore; B - longer, proggier compositions; C - short bursts of chaos using an absurd guest list; D - batshit AI generated noise). Highly recommended! Favorite track: Ba.

Giles a spectacular whirlwind of creation, the 'guest list' is incredible, and the amount of invention and energy packed into every minute is wonderful. every sort of heavy and crazy metal is here, and I love it

floating-weightless Intriguing grindcore with a splash of some post rock and freeform jazz sound. Favorite track: Anumati.

about

"Swatta" breathes unity, drives hope, happiness and motivation to go forward and have a purpose in life. It brings its sounds from appreciation of life as it comes day by day without thinking too far into the future or past. . It is based on a purpose in life also called “Ikagai”-Ikigai (ee-key-guy) is a Japanese concept that combines the terms iki, meaning “alive” or “life,” and gai, meaning “benefit” or “worth. ikigai is a state of wellbeing that arises from devotion to activities one enjoys, which also brings a sense of fulfillment.

"Swatta is record where one will find everything from Chepang sonically and collaboratively. The record represents everything we have felt for the entirety of our lives as human beings into a big slab of wax.The main message is about hope and finding happiness in chaos and negativity"
